I have a 14700kf on a arctic liquid freezer 2 with MX6 thermal paste. Didnt spent a crazy amount of time overclocking but running 5.7ghz all (P) cores comfortably on 1.355 volts.

Funny, I also did this exact upgrade and also noticed the exact same thing with steam downloads no longer beting bottlenecked. Can saturate my net speed now which is nice.
I did this, also needed to upgrade my cooler to a 360aio so keep that in mind, the 14700k is alot hotter, like alot…
Did I notice anything? No not really, I already had 400fps in cs2 for example, yes now the number is like 500-600, do I notice it though, is it tangible? Not really.
Good to know im future proofed for longer though.
Depends on the game.
If you play competitive low settings high fps CPU bound games, then yes, better ram usually does increase FPS.
I play PUBG which is notorious for seeing large FPS improvements related to RAM speed (see this video I made - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvjHCN-S8wU)
